According to Lu Zhiwei’s reclusive nature in earlier years, the number of cultivators she knew outside the sect was indeed not many.
Especially in the Qi Kingdom.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
The Tree Demon shook its branches and leaves, creating a rustling sound, as layers of spiritual power surged across its massive body, appearing very conspicuous.
The Foundation Establishnt Demon Power was fully released at this mont, becoming visible to the naked eye, presenting a translucent silvery white.
From a distance, Lu Zhiwei carefully observed the person fighting with the Tree Demon.
She found the figure to be very familiar.
It was a young man in a silver robe with cloud patterns.
In his movents, there was a lack of the steadiness typical of youth, instead, a touch of liveliness and agility more akin to a teenager.
The flying sword continuously slashed at the Tree Demon’s body under his control but was repeatedly deflected due to the Tree Demon’s strong defense.
This forced him to change tactics and retreat, employing other techniques for attack.
It was only when the flying sword returned to the cultivator’s side, and he retreated to reveal his face, that Lu Zhiwei finally saw his features clearly.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan?"
She exclaid in surprise.
This... isn’t this... Yuan Lang?!
Lu Zhiwei’s gaze shifted, confirming she hadn’t seen wrong.
A cultivator’s mory is excellent; how could one mistake soone?
Completely unexpected.
To see the figure of Shenxiao Palace’s disciple Yuan Lang here.
Upon seeing an acquaintance here, Lu Zhiwei imdiately moved closer.
It was precisely when Lu Zhiwei recognized Yuan Lang that Yuan Lang, after distancing himself from the Tree Demon, noticed Lu Zhiwei with a sidelong glance.
"You are..."
His expression was first stunned with surprise, then turned to one of joy and excitent.
"Fellow Daoist Zhiwei!"
He exclaid excitedly, calling out as he maneuvered his flying sword to approach Lu Zhiwei.
But at the sa ti, the Tree Demon was very cunning.
One of its branches, like an arm, stabbed viciously towards Yuan Lang’s back, causing Yuan Lang’s expression to change.
Just as Yuan Lang was about to evade, a round ring suddenly flew out, blocking the Tree Demon’s tendril-like branch with a bang.
This is the Demon-locking Ring.
Lu Zhiwei had acted, launching the Demon-locking Ring to fend off the Tree Demon’s attack for Yuan Lang, forcing the Tree Demon to pull back its tendril branch painfully, glaring fiercely at Lu Zhiwei.
At such a mont, it’s not the ti for words when actions speak louder.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, now isn’t the ti for words; let’s deal with this Tree Demon first!"
Lu Zhiwei softly said, nodding towards Yuan Lang as a form of greeting, with no intention to talk more.
"Alright!"
Yuan Lang responded with joy, propelling his flying sword to land beside Lu Zhiwei.
"First-Layer Foundation Establishnt..."
At this ti, Lu Ping also noticed Yuan Lang, and with just a glance, he realized Yuan Lang’s cultivation level had already reached the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
Not seen for a short while, this young guy’s cultivation had increased quite rapidly.
No wonder he was entangled here with the Tree Demon.
Lu Zhiwei also sensed the change in Yuan Lang’s aura, thinking he had recently succeeded in Foundation Establishnt.
Now, with a fellow cultivator at Foundation Establishnt to join forces, it should be enough to confront this Tree Demon.
As for why Yuan Lang was also here, it wouldn’t be too late to ask after eliminating the Tree Demon.
Clatter, clatter!
Yuan Lang’s flying sword was a Tier Three Middle Grade Fire Cloud Sword, a magical artifact bestowed by his master Xuu Qingshan after breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage a few days ago.
Compared to the Fire Cloud Sword, Lu Zhiwei’s personal spiritual artifact wasn’t weak either, having two or three Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts, such as the Demon-locking Ring.
Even more powerful was the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword.
"With Yuan Lang assisting, dealing with this Tree Demon should be much easier; swift combat, without dragging."
Lu Ping’s voice rang out.
Lu Zhiwei secretly nodded and glanced towards Yuan Lang.
"Together!"
Brief and clear, Lu Zhiwei retracted the Demon-locking Ring and summoned the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword from her brow.
The azure brilliance erged, quickly condensing into an ancient divine sword.
As she ford hand seals with her jade hand, the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword pointed forward.
This lifebound flying sword, like an arrow leaving the bowstring, suddenly thrust out, bringing a brilliant azure streak of light.
This Tree Demon had just broken into the Second-Layer Foundation Establishnt not long ago, but due to its racial limitations, its combat abilities were rather average among its peers, not fit for high bursts of attack.
It couldn’t fight opponents across realms, only capable of confronting a Second-Layer Foundation Establishnt adversary head-on.
Now, facing Lu Zhiwei of the Third-Layer Foundation Establishnt, the Tree Demon was sowhat lacking in strength.
Moreover, with Yuan Lang at the First-Layer Foundation Establishnt assisting, the Tree Demon was at a significant disadvantage in this battle.
Yet, although the Tree Demon’s attack power wasn’t formidable, its defense was impressive.
Even after several slashes from Yuan Lang’s Fire Cloud Sword, it failed to pierce through the Tree Demon’s tough defenses, leaving only faint marks on its body.
Seeing the ineffectiveness of the flying sword’s offensive, Yuan Lang naturally wouldn’t waste magical power on futile efforts.
"Fellow Daoist Zhiwei, step back!"
His thoughts spurred swiftly, warning Lu Zhiwei.
Lu Zhiwei glanced sideways, and upon hearing his words, retreated slightly, just in ti to see Yuan Lang draw a bronze-colored token from his storage bag, raising it high in his hand towards the Tree Demon.
"Shenxiao Decree!"
Upon seeing this token-like magical artifact, Lu Zhiwei recognized it imdiately.
This was a signature magical artifact of the Shenxiao Palace, also known as a talisman, as it was a consumable item.
"From the Nine Heavens above, awe-inspiring Divine Thunder!"
After retrieving the Shenxiao Decree, Yuan Lang’s actions were quick and decisive.
Without delay, he frantically infused magical power into the Shenxiao Decree, causing it to fly out of his hand, rapidly rising.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
In an instant, the Shenxiao Decree emitted intense light, accompanied by a sudden gust of wind.
A funnel-shaped thundercloud, approximately three feet wide, ford almost instantly.
The thunderstorm swirled, as dark as ink, gathering above the Tree Demon’s head, stirring up waves of montum, enhancing the Tree Demon’s alertness.
Boom!
A Nine Heavens Divine Thunder suddenly exploded at this mont.
This divine thunder, swift and fierce, descended abruptly from the thundercloud as if a flying silver dragon, reaching extre speed, struck fiercely upon the Tree Demon’s massive body.
In a split second, the sound of thunder roared, with the light growing exceptionally bright, covering the Tree Demon’s upper body in the illumination of lightning.
"Such powerful Divine Thunder Power."
Witnessing the effects of the Shenxiao Decree, Lu Zhiwei’s eyes narrowed, feeling sowhat surprised.
This was definitely not an ordinary Shenxiao Decree.
At the very least, this one was much stronger than the Shenxiao Decrees the Cyan Mountain Sect had previously obtained; their powers were not even in the sa class.
Indeed, that was the truth.
The Shenxiao Decrees previously obtained by the Cyan Mountain Sect were rely Tier One Shenxiao Decrees, and at most, could only deal with Qi Cultivation Great Perfection opponents.
